jim cramer is the host of "mad money" on cnbc. he is at the cnbc headquarters. jim, good morning. it's good to see you. >> good to see you, savannah. thank you. >> stock market closed for a second day. i assume you think that's a good call. >> this is one of the things if you can't get to it, we still need humans. you think it's all by machine. it's not. this only happened in 1888. extremely unusual, but, yes, there will be no action today at all. >> as you mention, we do need to have people physically there, but we do do a lot of trading electronically now. wasn't there also a concern that there might be some manipulation had the markets opened? >> absolutely. there would be so few players that you could move stocks in any one direction if you had a couple million dollars, and then i think what people don't recognize is that even though we can trade machine to machine, if individuals aren't involved, there is capability for true mayhem, and i think that was a great reason why there should be no trading today. >> we are hearing figures this morning, and they're just early estimate
